Uneven Swelling After Bullhorn Lip Lift

Good day! Generally, 3 days is too soon to see results because swelling persists for 1-2 weeks and tightness should diminish within a few months. However, it is difficult to assess without an in person examination or at least a photo. Do not hesitate to ask your doctor about your concern or any additional aftercare options for best results. Best of luck! #RealSelf100

Thank you for your question. The Lip Lift procedure is performed to accentuate the size and/or shape of the upper lip by removing skin from the region just underneath the nose. As the distance is decreased between the nose and the lip, the red lip is 'lifted'. In appropriate individuals, shortening this distance may impart or restore a more favorable balance to lips and face.
Your experience of uneven swelling after only 3 days is entirely normal.

In most cases, there is significant improvement in the swelling by 72 hours following the procedure. Much, but not all, of the remaining swelling is resolved by 1 week. Most women feel comfortable being seen in public after 1 week, and are even more comfortable by 2 weeks.

Any surgery need TIME to completely heal. Prior to any surgery you need to be psychlogically ready for the healing process. There is no majic. 6-12 weeks before the swelling and final results
